BEN WHITE’S “absolute rubbish” defending for Bayern Munich’s tie-winning goal had Arsenal fans “screaming” at their TVs.
The Germans were given too much space for a cross headed home by the unmarked Joshua Kimmich as a 1-0 win put the hosts through to the Champions League semi-finals 3-2 on on aggregate.
Viewers accused defender White of failing to respond to the 63rd minute raid that completely exposed the Gunners down their right.
One fan posted: “FFS IM SCREAMING AT BEN WHITE GET TO THE CROSSSSS!!!! FFS MAAAAAN.”
Another reckoned the defender showed a “lazy lazy lazy way of trying to stop the cross”.
And a third hit out: “Ben White you should’ve pressed him ffs.”
